Special EVENTS

Want to Serve With Your Leader?

If you are in high school and are interested in serving alongside your leader, here are some of the opportunities that we have in our area: Jr Leadership & Work Crew.

JR LEADERSHIP

As an upperclassman, if you have been with us at a week long summer camp trip before, we would to have you running with us as a co-leader for summer camp. If you have the ability to fill a cabin of freshmen or sophomores, you have the leadership ability to lead it. We want to come alongside you and help you lead it. If you are interested in being a Jr Leader, let your Young Life leader know!

WORK CREW

For high school students involved with Young Life, Work Crew is a great experience with peers, involving hard work and a chance to grow in your faith. The work crew serves in a variety of ways like dining hall servers, grounds crew and housekeepers.

Every year, we go and serve at a Young Life camp one weekend in the fall, BUT there are also opportunities to serve as a month-long volunteer every summer! Let your Young Life leader know you are interested in work crew and we will get in touch with you about upcoming opportunities and area trainings in February.
